Hawaiian Coasters 325

Surprised no one has written RMC in the snow lol

Tbh Orion looks awesome in the snow!

I'm also starting to think that it doesn't have to be a coaster to go into that plot of land. If CF really wants to spread out coasters and do more interactive experiences, then I think they could do something like a Forbidden Frontier and/or a midway expansion there. Yes, that land is perfect for a coaster, but if this was in fact a last minute decision and they want to find something to put there fast, then maybe a 2021/22 Forbidden Frontier type attraction is a possibility.

So @JonahWilliamson when are you going to do your thing with the animation layout?

I hope they aren't trying to shut the park down. I hope this does not mean they are done building coasters. I believe KI will try and be good to it's neighbors, but I think when people move close to an amusement park, they should be warned about the potential for noise from the park going into the night.

I believe that's the crane we called T-bone for a while.

That's probably why we don't see Vending machines in queue lines anymore on new coasters at KI. I know Diamondback still has them. I think they removed the ones in Drop Tower's queue, but I might be wrong on that. Banshee and Mystic don't have vending machines in the queue like DB and Orion most likely won't either.

Yeah I don't want them to stop doing the fireworks. I can see them from my bedroom window on summer nights.

I see Invertigo/Congo leaving and a new coaster going there.

Boooo the weather

Rivertown already has some old western style buildings, but I would love to see more. Heck maybe paint and redo the outside of the Crypt building and make it look westerm.

I saw stakes on the last day the park was open in October before all this happened..

I hope it's restrooms, but part of me is thinking not. Restrooms need a good amount of planning because it requires a bunch of things. On the other hand, I could see maybe an expanded plaza with seating similar to Banshee's and maybe build a small food stand to replace the current one.

I watched in the loop's latest video on Iron Gwazi and let me say. Imagine that type of RMC lift structure towering in the back of the park where Vortex was.

Remember I believe CF talked about spreading out big projects. I'm thinking 2024 right now. I think they could use some of the land from Vortex for flat rides on the Coney Mall side for 2021-2023 and then use the leftover land for a coaster in Rivertown.

They could still do an above ground tunnel like Leviathan. In fact we should try to make it happen.

It's likely Racer's turnaround just getting in the way of the picture, but there are times where I glance at it and it looks like the drop off the first turn goes underground. Most likely doesn't though.

Doesn't seem like much is happening.

They likely won't remove the temp supports on the drop until track work is completed if you ask me.

yeah the weather is kinda strange today. I live right near the park.

I believe they know what they're doing. They wouldn't have went for it if it was going to be unsafe. I believe several people were concerned about the tunnel on Yukon Striker and how tight it looked and turned out to be safe.

I don't think we said anything about Fury's lights. Just DMX lighting. If I were to take a guess would be at the bottom lighting up the supports. But I would also love to see an LED light system going up the catwalk railing on the lift with maybe a traveling like effect similar to Valravn. And then top it all off with light up wheels!

Got this shot of Orion!

It depends though. May-June is when a lot of schools do field trips to Kings Island.

Lol nope. Instead I was riding with my mom who is terrified of heights and falling from them. I did joke about John Matarese before I went to bed last night. Our wifi was out and I was like: "I think we should try and have it make the news. I know someone who can report on it (referencing John M)." lol
